raised for hint here—how, with all these, it happens that Don Carlos still retrains in the modest retirement of the mountains of Biscay, is really more than I am able to under stand.—( Cheers.) I certainly do share the hope expressed in the Speech from the Throne, that hostilities in Spain will soon be terminated, and that they will terminate in the firm estabrAshment of the Government of the Queen.—(Hear.) The Hon. Member's hopes lie in a different direction,and,thaes be justly states, it will rema i n f or e ve nts to show which of two hopes are best founded. In the meanwhile I can assurethe Gaon. Member and the House, that the Government will con tinue to make every effort in their power to realize which they entertain.—( Hear, hear-) The Hon the hopes Member,* on the other hand, will, no doubt. continue those oratorical ebrts by whict he hopes to gain the House over to support his views.—( Hear, hear.) Wh ich is most likely to be suc cessful, events will also Pr°ve.- 1 really hear.) There is, however, one point upon which 'wish to be very clearly understood, especia ll y us other er gentlemen have al luded to it as well as th e Hon. Member for Sandwich. If there be any man who can believe that Government views 'with unequal horror and disgust the atrocities which have been committed on 'eoth sides in Spain—if there be any one who thinks that we regard with less disgust the atro cities committed by the partisans of the Queen than those committed by the followers of Don Carlos—he does us an atrocious injustice.—( Hear, hear.) And the Honourable Member for Sandwich is very much mistaken if he thinks that the interference of the British Government has been confined to one side of the question.---( Hear.) If the Hon. Member has such an impression on his mind, , I assure him he is greatly ignorant of what has taken place.—( Hear, hear.) 'We have felt it to be our duty in cases in which we have had reason to believe that these proceedings have been taken on the part of the Queen's troops, to declare - our indignation and disgust at them, and to express a hope not only that punish ment would be inflicted upon those who were guilty of them, but that active.and decisive steps would be taken to prevent a recurrence of them.—( Hear, hear.) There was one parti cular case which took place some months ago, in which it was understood that some prisoners were executed by the Queen's troops. A remonstrance was immediately made on the• part of Great Britain, to which the reply of the Queen's Govern ment was, that the account was utterly unfounded, and that no such occurrence as had been represented had taken place. —(Hear.) Now with respect to the correspondence to which the Hon. Member adverted, I must certainly admit that I • wrote the letter to which he referred. He says I addressed the letter to the newspapers. That is not the fact. Mr. G. PRICE—I beg the Noble Lerd's pardon. I merely said that I had read the letter in the newspaper. I did not say that the Noble Lord addressed it to the newspaper. Lord PALMERSTON—WeII, then, I will only say that so far from wishing to deny the letter, I fairly tell the Hon. Member that I felt great satisfaction in having the opportu nity afforded to me of writing it.—(Cheers.) I think that the application of the Bishop of Leon addressed to me, came ill from him, and at an ill time. I do not wish to speak harshly of those in whose opinions, sentiments, or feelings, Ido not concur ; it is a practice I do not follow.—(Hear.) I will say nothing, therefore, of the Bishop of Leon, which shall at all contradict what the Honourable Member for Sandwich has said in his praise. It happened, however, that but a short pe riod before the letter of the Bishop was addressed to me , the - English Government had sent a special mission to the head quarters of Don Carlos, for the purpose of endeavouring to prevail on him to disavow and retract the bloody edict by which it was declared that all foreigners taken in arms in the service of the Queen, should be immediately and barbarously mur dered. Don Carlos refused to do so.—( Hear.) With his own lips he refused to retract or to disavow that atrocious dict.—( Hear, hear.) The officer dispatched by the Bri tish Government returned with a positive refusal from the lips of Don Carlos.—(Hear, hear.) I say, then, with such, an answer, recently received from Don Carlos, to have a letter of fulsome praises towards England, 'reminding us of the services which England hatl rendered to Spain— ( Hear, hear)---of the English blood. shed for the cause and in the service of Spain—to have a long letter of that sort written by a person who, whether at present the confidential adviser or agent of Don Carlos or not, was certainly a per son much in his councils and confidence whilst he was in this country—l say, that to a letter of that kind, written under such circumstances, it did not appear to me that any other answer was requisite than that which I gave to it.—( Hear, hear.) But let not the House imagine that because I did not accede to the request of the Bishop of Leon-, that on that account I took no step in favour of the prisorers. I had. in fict interceded a month before. The Bishop's letter was dated on the 10th October. On the Ist of September I sent out instructions to the proper persons to endeavour, if possible, to obtain the release of the twenty-seven prisoners. —( Hear, hear.) Therefore, however well-informed the Hon. Member for Sandwich may be aspen other points, the Heine will see that he has been wholly misled upon this.—( Hear, bear.) And if the "Hon. Member will only take the trouble to inform himself cn both sides of the question, perhaps his anticipations as to the result of the contest in Spain- might be materially altered.—(Hear, hear.) I say that it is most untrue that the British Government have shown any indiffe rence to the bloody practice which la'as prevailed on both 'sides during the war in Spain, ar.d. that the Hon. Gentle man is entirely mistaken, it' he supposes we have looked with partiality to the atrocities committed on one side, or not endeavoured by all the means in our power to induce the combatants to conduct their warfare more according to the usages of civilized nations.—(blear, hear.) I believe I have now touched upon all the points to which the Hon. Mem ber adverted. I ant not aware that there is any other to which his ohs ervations apply. 'I will only add, that there is nothing in Speech from the Throne which induces me to regret, as 'the Hon. Member stated he was persuaded I must do, any es.peessions which fell from me during the last session, in con se,'ence of some remarks which he then made. The Hen. Member reminded me of having said, on that occasion, that the imputations which he threw out against the Government of the Queen of Spain were, in my opinion, an abuse of the pri vilege of Parliament. I remember that the Hon. Member on that occasion insinuated, though lie did not state, that the officers of the Queen had sent prisoners on board ship, uncles the pretence of sending them from one port to another, but in fact, for the purpose of drowning them at sea. It was to that insinuation that my observations applied. I certainly didithink sand I retain the same opinion still, that it is not a becoming Tusk; of the privilege of the House—not a becoming use of that liberty of speech which is the unquestionable right of every member of this House, to throw out insinuations of that kind against the officers or instruments of a foreign natioa, unless. the party who makes the charge is in pos session of such facts as will prove, beyond dispute, the authenticity of what he is stating.—( Heat, bear.) The Hon. Member will see the distinction between what has since happened, and the circumstances to which he then alluded. The massacre at Barcelona was a thing of a totally different description. The authorities acting under the Queer. were, I think, grossly criminal for their neglect. I think their apathy was blameable and culpable in the highest de gree; but I am sure the Hon. Member wiil see a wide dif ference between that case and the one which was supposed to have taken place, but which nothing that had since conic to light has proved to be true.—(Wear, hear.) Lord MA HON rose, not for the purpose of taking arty part in the debate ; another opportunity would, he trusted, be given to him to express his opinion on the subject ; but lie rose to put n, question to the Noble Lord the Secretary for Foreign Affairs. The Noble Lord had stated, and he tt Lord Mahon) begged to say that he had heard that state ment with unmixed pleasure, that he had shown such zeal in the cause of humanity as not to confine his application :in favour of the prisoners on one side only, but had, on the first day Of September last, interposed on behalf of the pri soners taken by the Queen of Spain; The question he wished to put to the Noble Lord was this—What was the result of that application ; add were the lives of those un happy beings safe ? Lord PA LMER,STON.—The Noble Lord will well re member that the lives of those prisoners never were in danger. They were taken when the Noble Lord himself was in office on board of an English sloop, which was captured on the coast of Spain ; and by the interposition of the then Government of this country, the lives of those persons were saved ; but they were kept prisoners It was in consequence of the con vention negotiated by Lord Eliot that a question was raised respecting their detention. Being taken before the convention was entered into, they were not strictly entitled to the benefit of the exchange of prisoners under it. The only question on which any discussion had been raised by the present Govern ment was, not whether the lives of those prisoners should he saved, because their lives had already been guaranteed to the preceding Governmeni; but whether they should be set at liberty by an exchange of an equal number of Christino officers who had been taken prisoners by the troops of Don Carlos. It was to that point alone that the application of the Ist of Sep. tember was directed. That application was not successful. It was stated in reply that these prisoners were not strictly en titled to the benefit of the convention, and that from peculiar circumstances it was not considered for the interests of the Queen of Spain to send them back to the army of Don Carlos. But I believe that every measure has been taken, not only on the one hand for the security of those officers from escapes but on the other for the prevention of any outrage towards them on the part of the Queen of Spain. Lord MAHON again expressed the extreme gratification he had received from hearing of the application which his Majesty's Government had made in the cause of humanity, and in so praiseworthy a manner. Mr. PETER BO RTHIVICK bad heard with equal sur prise and delight the speech of the Noble Lord (Palmerston). The whole country would be pleased to ascertain that among thotie measures of the Government of the Queen of Spain, which the House had prono unced to be prudent and vigorous, the a c t s o f General Mina were not included. In not opposing thei•Aach. ess, he protested against being und erstood as a p ar _ t san either of Don Carlos or the Queen of Spain. He pleaded for non-intervention. The Report was then agreed to, and on the motion of The CHANCELLOR. of the EXCHEQUER was ordered obe presented to his Majesty by the w hole House to-morrow (this day) at on e o ' c l oc k . CORPORAL PUNISHMENT. Mr. LENNARD, in the absence of the Noble Lord, the Secretary at War, postponed his motion respecting corporal punishments in the army and navy till Thursday the 25th inst. ; and gave notice that on that day he should move for a return of the number of inquests that had been held on soldiers and marines who had died after suffering corporal punishment. Mr. GROVE PRICE gave notice of a motion for a return of the number of officers and men now serving in the cause of the Queen of Spain, who were in the receipt of pay from the British Government. THE KING OF BELGIUM. , Mr. ROBINSON asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether any money had been received into his Majesty's Ex chequer in consequence of the arrangements that had been made with the King.of Belgium respecting the pension of 50,0004 a year granted him by Parliament on the demise of the Princess Charlotte? The CHANCELLOR of -the EXCHEQUER. said that the arrangement entered into with the King of Belgium, as stated to the House in the. last session, had been punctually pperfermecl ; and the Hon. Gentleman would see, when the pub. ',tic accounts should be lid 'oefore 'the House, that after certain payments on account of certain charitable pensions graa:ted by thee Princess Charlotte, and for the maintenance in repair of Claremont-house, a balance arising from this peen ion had been paid into his Majesty's Exchequer. THE NEW HOUSES OF PARLIAMENT. Mr. HUME wished to ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer what steps had been taken with regard to the plans for the New Houses of Parliament? He had - seen a paragraph in the news papers, stating that all the plans delivered in to the Commis sioners appointed to select the four best plans for approval, had been returned by them to the architects who had sent them in, except four or five. He wished to know whether those four or five plans were to be submitted to a Committee of this House for consideration, or whether inspection of the plans by the Commissioners was to be considered final ? This was a matter which deeply interested the public ; he therefore hoped his Right Hon. Friend would be able to give some information e.e the subject. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said it was his intention, before the House adjourned, to give notice that on Tuesday next he should move for the revival of the Com mittee appointed last year on this sul4ect. With respect to the question put to him by his Hon. Friend, he must remind him of what took place last year, when a proposition was made by the Hon. Member for Lambefh that the whole of the plans sent in to the Commissioners should be exhibited, in order to give the public the means of judging of their merits. He then stated that he believed (and he was still of the same opinion) that the public had no room or place in which an exhibition of that kind could take place. The proposition was therefore re jected. It being the intention of Government to revive the Committee of last year, of course that Com•,nittee would have the power to inspect all the plans they thor.ght fit, and to adopt whatever course might appear to then to be proper. He had seen it announced in the public papers, that the artists had taken measures on their own axeount to give a public exhibi tion of their drawings. Ile thought that they had done very right in determining so to do. It would, no doubt, be inte resting to the public to have such an exhibition. But that was entirely an affair of their owit : the Government had nothing to do with it. He thought the best course for them to adopt wai to leave the further progress of tnis matter to the Committee who had commenced the inquiry. The Right Hon. Gentle man concluded by giving notice of the - motion of which he had spoken. Mr. HUME gam notice that-when the Committee should be appointed, he should move that it be an instruction to them to consider the propriety of alto-ring the site of the new Houses of Paeliament.--(Hear, hear.) THE, POLISH EXILES. Lord D. STU A.RT asked the Right Hon. Gentleman, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether it was the intention of his M7.jesty's Government this year to propose to Parliamei.t that a grant should be voted for the Polish exiles in this coun try similar to the grant voted last session ? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said it would be with very great pleasure that he should renew this year the vote for the relief of the Poles.—( Hear, hear.) He had done so on a former occasion with much satisfaction, and certainly nothing had since occurred to make him the less ready to do so on the present.—(Hear.) Mr. G. F. YOUNG gave notice of a motion to amend the Act of the 55 Geo. 111., relating to duties on the tonnage of goods in ships navigating within the jurisdiction of the South Sea Company ; but on The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER stating that it was the intention of Government to bring forward a measure respecting those duties, which he thought would be satisfactory to all parties, Mr. G. F. YOUNG withdrew his notice. The House then adjourned at half-past 8 o'clock. IRELAND. IMPORTANT TITHE CASE. The decision in the ease, Archdeacon Knox v. Gavin and others, to which we alluded on Thursday, was given in the Court of Exchequer on Monday last. It will be recollected that early in the present. Term a conditional order was obtained out of this Court for an attachment against Chief Constable Malone and Major Miller, Inspector of Police, for refusing the aid of the constabulary in execution of a writ of rebellion for 141 e recovery of tithes in the county of Tipperary, and the question argued on Friday and Saturday last was whether that rule should be made absolute. The case, though nominally between the parties to the proceedings, was really a question between the " Lay Association for assisting the Clergy" and the Irish Government, and excited the deepest interest. Oa Friday it was argued for the plaintiff by Mr. Smith (son to the Baron of that name), who indulged in the most con temptuous taunts against the Lord Lieutenant and the Irish Law Officers, and it was obvious from the tone a ed manner of the Learned Gentleman, that it was regal:tied by his clients as a question of politics alone. On Saturday he was followed on the other side by the Solicitor-General, who argued ably on the law of the case, and maintained, from books of authority and the practice in the Courts .of Chancery in England and Ireland (where commissions of re bellion were expressly abrogated), that the writ became ob solete, and ought not to be practically executed. He ob. served that there existed three other effective processes by which the object of the plaintiff might easily be attained, and that if the" rule were made absolute it would have the effect of placing the disposal of the military and police in the hand: of any ignorant cow-boy whom the plaintiff may choose to appoint. In the case before them the Commissioner was only twenty years of are, and of the lowest order in society. Flu showed by afndavits that the chief-constable sought to be attached could not spare the force required by the Commis sioner,! and that he acted in strict conformity with the in . structions of the Irish Government. The .whole proceeding;, he contended, was got up for the purpose of bringing tile Executive and the Court of Exchequer into collision, and giv in; Mr. Smith an opportunity of converting the Court into an arena for political declamation. Ex-Sergeant Pennefathcr replied at great length, and the Court adjourned to Monday. At an early hour that morning the Court was crowded to ex cess, and the most intense anxiety was-manifested by the en tire Bar, to hear their Lordships' decision. The Chief Ba ron, Barons Smith and Foster, severally delivered their opi nions, which occupied the Court over two hourS, and were unanimous in the opinion that the order should be made abso lute. This was generally expected from the commencement, but here the matter ends, as the attachment will not, after all, he suffered to issue. Mr. Smith has taken nothin g b • his ) mo- I tion—not even costs. A qui tam action has been commenced in the Court of King's Bench for the recovery of 17,0001. amount of penalties for bribery at the late Dungarvon elections against Mr. Gal way, the candidate - on the Tory interest. DREADFUL ATTACK UPON TIIE REVENUE POLICE—Loss Li .—Under this head a Sligo paper has along article—pro bably the whole affair is a pure invention, for it is notorious that accounts of this kind are constantly put into circulation by the Orange party, without one particle of truth. • A man of name of Morrissy, a pig-jobber, was found dead on Saturday morning near Athluncard-bridge, supposed to have perished from the inclemency of the weather. A fishing-boat belonging to Kinsale was on Friday ovcrset, and the crew drowned. TITHE CAMPAIGN.-The Cork and Newry papers contain accounts of attacks on bailiffs employed to serve Exchequer fithe subpoenas in those neighbourhoods. The cry of " tithe —tithe " was raised—the 'populace assembled, and the bailiffs were severely beaten. . _ VIOLATION OF MAGNA ClIARTA.—Under this head the ( Orange) Herald came forward on Monday rather prematurely with a flaming article, inter aliis, accusing the Executive of a violation of the Charter !! After inundating us with a shower of truisms about law, justice, and society, our Cork contemporary arrives per saltum at the following notable conclusion. We need not add that premises and conclusion are equally unsound and utterly rotten : — 4 4 We say that justice in Ireland is de layed—for if the Executive will not afford those means to the Irish Clergy which times and circumstances render essential to the obtaining of their rights and the redress of their inju ries—if they be refused the succour absolutely necessary for pursuing the ends of justice, and which succour is placed in the hands of the Government for the purpose of keeping peace, maintaining security, and sustaining the execution of the laws —justice is essentially and virtually delayed—and the Great Charter infracted in one of its most vital covenants." PARIS. INFERNAL MACHINE PLOT. COURT OF PEERS, TUESDAY, Fee. 2. (Continued from The Sun of yesterday.) TRIAL OF FIESCHI, PEPIN, MOREY, BOIREAU, AND BUCHER, For. THE CONSPIRACY TO TAKE AWAY THE KING'S LIFE Hy MEANS OF THE INFERNAL MACHINE EMPLOYED ON THE 28TH JULY, 1835. (Continuation of the Sitting of Wednesday.) EXAMINATION OF NINA LASSAVE CONTINUED. She said—When, on the 28th, I arrived on the Boulevard, I was told that the King had been shot at, and I apprehended that the attempt had been made by Fieschi ; but when I was shown the window, I had no longer the least doubt. About the end of April, Fieschi, who was afraid of being arrested, told me that if any misfortune happened to him, I might apply to his friends Pepin and Morey, who would take care of me. On the day after the attempt I went to Pepin's, and saw only his wife, who denied all knowledge of either Fieschi or Girard. I expressed my surprise at this, since I had myself seen Fieschi several times conversing with he r i n th e s h o p. Next day, being without money, I went and pawned my ear-rings for five francs. I afterwards recollected what Fieschi said to me about Morey. I went to him. On seeing me crying, he asked me what was the matter ? I said, " You know as well as I do." He then said, "It was Fieschi who struck the blow." I then continued, " What a dreadful misfortune ! There are many , victims, and they say that poor Marshal Mortier was so good a man." He replied, that Mortier was a blackguard like the rest. I added, "It was bad management. To get rid of one man you have killed fifty. I, w h o am b ut a woman, if I wished to kill Louis Philippe, would have token a pair of pistols, and, after having fired at him, I would have shot myself." He said, " N ever m i n d 1 H e w i ll lose nothing by waiting. He will be brought down at l as t." I asked him how Fiesc hi, who was no mechanician, could have made such a machine. He answered, "It was I who made the plan; it is only a minute ago that , I destroyed it, or I would have shown it to you." I said," Then it was Fi esc hi who loaded all the barrels ?" He replied, "No : he charged but three, and it was precisely those which wounded him ; he would meddle with what he did not understand. I loaded the rest with slugs, in such a way that they could not fail," He THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY, FEI3IWARY 6, 18:16. told me that Fieschi was quite alone in the room when the machine was fired, and added, " It is very unfortunate that it has not succeeded, for if it had yoU would have lacome rich, sou would hate had at least 20,000 f. now in your pocket." Before we parted we hired a room for Bf., and gave a franc as earnest money. He desired me to take my things there, and don't ards meet him in the square before the church of Notre name. Before we parted, however, we reflected that the room we had taken was in a common lodging-house, and not sufficiently private, and therefore determined to forfeit the earnest money, and we afterwards took a room in the Rue Long Pont. He came the next day with the trunk, paid 6f. for a fortnight's rent, and gave me sf. for myself. I had believed that Fieschi was dead, but found in a journal that he was not. Ziforey said, " Unfortunately ht is not dead, but he will never want his property; you may therefore sell it, but not in Paris." He afterwards told me he would bring me 60f. to pp to Lyons, where I have a brother living. I replied, " But tills is not what you promised Fieschi? You told him you - would take care of me; and you wish to get rid of me by giving me these 60f." He then said he would leave me at Lyons only for a year or two, until the affair had blown over, and then I should return. Morey admitted that he had recommended Nin'a to go to Lyons, and that he had given her 60f. for the expenses of her journey. _ _ . Declaration of Nina.—Morey came back in the eveßing. The trunk had been opened since 11 o'clock in the morning. I gave him the books which it contained , and which be bad begged me to keep for him. There were four volumes, three entitled La Police Devoilie, and the fourth De la Femme. Did not Morey tell you that Fieschi ought to have blown his brains out ?—Yes, Sir ; on the 30th 1 said to Morey, " Fieschi is not dead yet."—" No," he replied, "he ought to have killed himself, but he has nbt yet done it. lam sorry for it." The President—Fieschi, is it true that you promised to blow your brains out'?—Morey told me to do so ; but as I had the courage to commit this crime, I preferred going to the scaffold, in order to serve as an example. I will go, and I shall summon up moral force enough to be useful to my country (with exultation). People, when they see me die, shall say, " It is still Fieschi : he will not let his courage fail him." Pepin was present at, this conversation. I replied to Morey, " No, I shall not blow my brains out ; I will fight till I am annihilated, and I will force those who attack me to kill me themselves." Louvel died without revealing anything._ (Movement.) I, gentlemen, I have not acted thus. I wish my example to be useful to my country ; I have cut off more heads than all the National Guards put together. I have driven back the revolution by 20 or 40 years, for ever perhaps. I have put Louis Phillippe in a condition of going wherever he pleases without any more alarms, and I will prove all this some day, when the Court grants me leave to speak. Do you suppose that the books which were in my trunk were a testi mony ? I ask what it is ? 'The President—Where are they ?—I could soon find them. ( Prolonged movement.) M. Dupont rose up. Fieschi said that he might speak, and gave way. At this- moment an usher of the Chamber approached Fieschi, and presented him with paper and a pen. Fieschi wrote some words, and the usher took the paper to the President. The President.—Fieschi may now be beard.—(Movement.) Fieschi (to the President.)—Have the measures which I pointed out been taken with respect to the books? The President.—l have done what was requisite. Fieschi.—l will now say that the books will be found with the porter, Swartz, in the street where the archives of the, kingdom are. I will also give some other explanations re specting the trunk. I will explain every circumstance of the plot. I have no more interest in seeing my accomplices be headed than in losing my own head.—(Great sensation:) I do not intend to justify myself; but let the Government take its measures. I want no pardon. I will mount the scaffold to serve as an example. The letters which I have written to the President will prove that I have not asked my life from any human being. Those letters may be produced, if the Government, the nation, or the universe, think proper to demand them.—(Extraordinary sensation and amaze ment.) I think that I, at this moment, see Morey chat-r -in- the machine along with me. It was he that pushed the balls down with a mallet. By means of an inge nious trick, with which I am well acquainted, be contrived to make four of the barrels burst, and he also arranged matters se that the charge, instead of taking the proper direction, should recoil, and hit me in the face. He has succeeded in hi sl ob ject.Bu disclosure. I for M. Lavocat, I would have made no disclos •e. I chose him, in preference to Ministers, as the depositary of my revelations ; and now that I have told everything, will add that my crime trill not be unproductive. It was perhaps necessary that a hundred men should be sacrificed to save our country, which is the envy of strangers. The Government is now saved. You will be at rest. . Gentlemen, I also shall be at rest ; 'for I shall join my_victitas. I had leagued myself with people who made a cat's-paw of me, and my mistake wss in being guided by them. I again affirm, that Morey loaded .he lyirre:s so as to insure my death. He Was determined that I should Im'eathe my last on the spot where I then stood. —( This incoherent declaration produced unequivoc a l mar k s o f amazement from the Court and the whole of the auditory in the galleries.) After some observations from the Procureur-General, who • contended for the veracity of the witness Nina Lassave's de clarations, the sitting was suspended. At a quarter past 4 the sitting was resumed. Annette Boquin, a linen-draper, No. 111, Rue l`trATetard, deposed, that of all the prisoners she only knew Fieschi, at whose house she had livctrl. During her stay she had seen Nina Lassave and Agin ithe there, but never any men. She never heard any conversation of Fieschi that could lead to a suspicion of his projects. A female witness, named ,Daurat, alias Agarithe, was then brought M. Dupont asked her if she remembered Fieschi having told her that ayoung man' had taken away his mistress from - him ? _ —She replied in the negative. Fieschi—M. Dupont says that Boircau was the lover of Madame Petit.. It is well known to all the world that ths is not the case. Pray let us speak of this woman as little iis possible. I have had the misfortune to love her, and a man like me loves only a single time, whether in polities or 'in affection. The sitting was adjourned at a qukter past five. SITTING OF THURSDAY, Fan. 4. The prisoners Ficschi, Morey, Pepin, Boircau, and Bescher were led in by the Municipal Guards at half-past 12 o'clock. Fieschi stepped over the bench with the agility of a young man of twenty, smiled around with th e grea t e st self-compla cency : having viewed the lower parts of th e Court, he then turned his attention to the witness-b ox i mme diately above him, and examined its occupants with an inquiring eye. Upon the entrance of the President, at a quarter to one o'clock, Ficschi made a respectful bow to the Court, and then sat down. Colonel Lavocat, Member of the Chamber of Deputies, examined.—Had known Ficschi for some time ;- he told him he was the son of a captain who had served in the Russian campaign. Ficschi was introduced to him by M. Catincs, about the year 1830, witness being member of the Committee of National Recompenses, and it was probable that Fieschi had also called on him, as well as a thousand others; for putting in their claims. He was subsequently named a non-commis sioned officer, upon the ground of his having suffered.for his poli tical opinions. At the period of the cholera Fieschi attended M. Cannes (ill of that malady) and waited on him with the most affectionate assiduity. About the same time wiutcss's bro ther was attacked with the same disease, Ficschi offered to wait on him night and day, and called several times to ace him during his illness. It was this generous conduct on the part of Fieschi that led to witness's intimacy with him. He was anxious to be of essential service to the Government, but said he did not like to serve in the inferior police. - He was desirous of being sent to Italy, where he declared he could be of great service in consequence of the Carlist con nexions of his wife. He asked witness to get him appointed Prefect, but he declined, not wishing to meddle with the police. About twelve or fifteen months since, he learned that Fieschi had made a false representation of his having been , a political victim, and that he had been condemned to ten years' imprisonment for robbery (stealing a cow in Corsica). M. Cannes believed him innocent, and called on witness to speak in his favour. He, however, refused to see him, and told M. Cauncs to recommend him to make a compl e t e avowal. M. Cauncs interested himself for Fieschi, but was unable to screen him from the course of justice. Witness was bound to say, in justice to the prisoner, that he had on many occasions rendered important services during the dis turbance in Paris at that period : he gave information of the designs and numbers of the rioters, and not being able to enter the National Guards, he kept constantly by the side of witness, and placed himself at his disposal : he frequently employed him on those perilous occasions, when he always conducted himself with zeal, ability, and rare intrepidity. The prisoner Fieschi appeared greatly affected during the deposition of M. Lavocat. He frequently shed tears, and ex hibited other signs of extreme emotion. As soon as the wit ness had concluded, Fieschi said that the evidence just detailed was perfectly exact, and he had nothing particular to add, with the excep tion that M. Lavocat had not stated one or two matters, per haps from their being of a private nature. M. Lavocat (recalled). —The fact was, that Fieschi had often told me to be on my guard, as there was a conspiracy to assassinate me • indeed Fieschi had watched overy safety, and had certainly saved my life. The President, addressing M. Lavocat, told him that he had rendered great services to the state for the part he had taken in this affair, and that he had shown himself a m an o f honour and integrity, and was therefore entitled to the thanks of the country. M. Dupon, advocate on behalf of Morey, observed that Morey was accused of having had projects of revenge against M. Lavocat. How was it that Fieschi could lodge at the house of the enemy of his patron ? Fieschi.—The fact was, he had no place of refuge, and any port was better than none at all.—(Laughter.) In fact, he 'was in such a predicament, that he would have taken a lodging with the wild beasts at the Garden of Plants.--( Sensation.) M. Scwarz, porter at the Archives, stated that he had been acquainted with Morey for the last seventeen years. He had never assisted Morey to cast bullets, nor had he any Ann , wteuge of the books, mentioned in the act of accusation, (Left Sitting.) PORT PATRICK.—The western wall of the har bour of Port Patrick was materially injured by the gale of Saturday, the 23d ult. The sea made a complete breach through it. Fears exist that this harbour, upon which 120,000/. has already been expended, and for which a further grant has been obtained of 27,0001., must eventually be abandoned as a packet station ; in which case the packets will run from Loch Ryan to Belfast, or Larne.

D.G. Britan nia. Rex F.D." and for the reverse a figure of Britannia, holding the trident with one hand, and having the other hand placed upon a shield, bearing the Union Cross, with the words - " Four Pence" round the figure and the date of the year in the exergue, and with a milled graining round the edge ; and whereas pieces of silver money of the above description have been coined at our Mint, and will be coined there, in pursuance of orders issued, and to be issued, by us : we have, therefore, by and with the advice of our Privy Council, thought fit to issuo this our Royal Proclamation ; and we do hereby ordain, declare, and command that the said p ieces of money so coined,' and to be coined, shall be current and lawful money of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, and shall pass and be received as current and lawful money of the United Kingdom, by the names aforesaid, and at the value herein before assigned to them.

(From the New London Price Current of last Night.) • SUGAR.-The Sugar market remains in a very uncommon state : we cannot quote any reduction in prices since Tuesday, as there is not enough business done to constitute a currency ; the Market is excessively fiat, and the contention between the buyer and seller continue? unabated. The average sales this week do not exceed 200 to 300 hhds each day, in some instances at still easier prices ; the Market continues very dull. The import of British Plantation up to the 31st ult. is nearly double that of last year, but, the deficiency continues to be very great, nearly 10,000 hhds. and trs. In Refined goods there continues considerable firmness, on account of the small supply of goods at Market. There is little alteration in the Refined Goods this after noon ; there are still enquiries for shipping goods at nearly former prices, Lumps to pass the standard 85s. ; for Grocery goods there is no demand whatever. MAURITIUS.-The public sale of Tuesday went off rather easier, but no general reduction could be stated, as the sellers would not submit to any decline, but rather took the Sugars in at former prices; about one- half of the quantity was thus withdrawn. There were two public sales this forenoon, con sisting of 1,629 bags ; the whole went off heavily at Tuesday's prices; low yellow 625. 6 d. to • 645. 6d. ; low grey 61s. to 625. The import of Mauritius Sugar up to the 31st ult. is much larger than at the same time last year ; the stock is . much less. EAST INDIA.-The prices of East India Sugars are no minal.; there are no sales to any extent ; Manilla in particular continues much inquired for. By public sale this day 371 bags 1 cask Bengal Sugar, the whole sold at previous prices, good mid. white 38s. a 38s. 6d. The importation and stock is far less than up to the end of January, 1835. FOREIGN.-The business in Foreign: Sugars has been confined to the public sale of 1,800 boxes white and 725 boxes yellow Havannah, consisting mostly of very soft quality, the sale went off heavily, only a small proportion found buyers, low and mid. white soft 455. to 475. 6d., yellow 355. to 365., low yellow 335. The imports of Foreign Sugar up to the end of January greatly exceed those of last year at the same period ; the stock of Havannah is less, but of Brazil rather more. By public sale this day 108 boxes yellow Havannah, mid. white all taken in at 41s. 6d., one lot soft yellow taken in 345., da maged 30s. 6d. to 38s. 6d., 2s. to 3s. lower. COFFEE.-Of British Plantation Coffee a public sale has been brought forward, chiefly Demerara, mostly of unclean quality ; about one-third sold at former prices. 333 bales of Mocha at public sale were nearly all taken in at higher rates, uneven brown to fair even quality 61s. 6d. to 665; a superior parcel of Ceylon, about 200 bags, sold privately as high as 605., but this price is not general. 1,400 bags St. Domingo have been offered publicly and taken in at 535. ; 118 packs Berbice sold a shade lower ; a cargo of St. Domingo afloat has been sold at 525. 6d., reported for Bremen. BY public sale this day 286 bags Ceylon Coffee, good fair quality taken in at b6s. 6d. 575., ls. to ls. 6d. per cwt. lower. The stock of British Plantation Coffee is about 900 tons less than it was at this period last year. The quantity of East India in the warehouses is 'about 1,050 tons less than at the close of Jan. 1835. The stock of Foreign is about 1;850 tons less than at the corresponding period of 1835. IRISH PROVISIONS.-The demand for Irish Butter is very small, in consequence of continued supplies of Foreign at lower prices. The accounts from Ireland state that at the several fairs last week the number of pigs were far deficient of former years at this season of the year, and that pigs for prime singed bacon sold at 345. to 355., so that the manufactu rer will not be remunerated unless he can obtain 445. to 455. per cwt. on board for that article. BACON. BUTTER. Stock. Delivery. Stock. Delivery. 1835 64,600 firks 7,760 firks 17,780 bales 2,550 bales 1836 54,777 6,474 16,087 2,733 The imports of Butter are Irish 3,l62jfirks. Foreign 4,116 casks. ; Bacon 4,556 bales. RUM, BRANDY AND HOLLANDS.—There is no alteration in the prices of Rum, the new arrivals continue to go off at full Market prices. There is no change in Brandy or Geneva. The only sale of Rum reported to- day is some Jamaica 27 over 3s. sd. The increase in the navy, mentioned in the King's Speech, has created much interest in the Rum Market ; another contract is expected. The report has no effect on the Market. The stock of Rum is about 1,200 puncheons less than last year; the imports to the present time are nearly the same. TALnow.—The speculators in Tallow appear to have over sold themselves, and they find to-day some difficulty in deli . vering the parcels ; the prices are in consequence a little higher, but the trad are still deterred from purchasing very largely, on account of the quantity expected on the first open ing of the navigation. WooL.—The Wool Market still continues in a very unset tled state, owing to the stock of all descriptions of Wool being very small, consequently the late brisk demand has been checked, and the prices may be stated 5 to 74 per cent. higher than at the beginning of the year. The public sales next week will contain about 500 bales Colonial Wool, and about 1,400 bales Russian, Spanish, and other descriptions. INnioo.--The sales of Indigo commenced on the 26th ult. and ended 3d inst ; they consisted of 5,232 chests by sundry brokers in Mincing-lane and 274 chests by the East India PRICES OF Farnham rockets (per cwt.)
